I rode 5000km to a motorcycle festival on the Norden 901 Expedition Ep4

Why did I ride 14-days through 5-countries to finally arrive at the biggest motorcycle festival in the UK? I didn't really know what I was getting myself into when I showed up to Ragley Hall in Warwickshire, home of the biggest motorcycle festival I've ever seen.
I was invited as a guest speaker, to talk about all things adventure, motorcycling and the unique path that has carved out Motology Films.

Thanks again for signing my tin of beans Adam! I promise they won't end up on eBay.

[@lajssna]

I'll give you a top case for it mate 🤔

[@davidkumeroa2997]

Legend.

[@bo88ex]

Hm, that is a business case by itself. Adam Riemann T-Shirts, merch, Warlord logo, Riemann true type fonts, hehehehe

[@beborodner930]

LOL. That was great man!! Glad you found a pen!

[@jeffhardegger6860]

So awesome!

[@philp7648]

The "security" dude was so mad when the lady came up and over ruled him you could see it in his face😂😂

[@ABRmagazine]

What an adventure to our festival! Glad you had a good time and hope to see you there again next year.

[@ant4467]

I think we all hope to see him again next year!!

[@tbillington]

ABR Festival needs to go international, hint hint 😉

[@fayisk5680]

This channel has become my therapy session. *INCREDIBLE RIDE*

[@dirtbikerman1000]

What a bonus to have Sean connery to drive you around the site in the buggy at the end It looks an awesome event This was a great mini series 🙌👍

[@titaniumquarrion9838]

He’s the budget Welsh version vs the legit Scottish version.

[@MotologyFilms]

The big dog ... Alun is a champ.

[@dirtbikerman1000]

@@MotologyFilms he seems like a top bloke 👍🏻🍻

[@bogdanruse5562]

I was about to say the same thing!😅 Sean Connery drove you around in a buggy..?! . Hahah! Cool guy, all the respect to him and his team that made all that possible! I'll probably be there in the future..and possibly I'll take the same path, going through TET to the event! Nice work, Adam, amazing footage, great story like the usual!

[@marklloyd69]

The ABR is an annual pilgrimage for many, enhanced this year by Adam’s presence. Literally the coolest man on the planet, great skills, outstanding cinematography and brilliant entertainment value. Keep it coming, or just ‘send it!’

[@murraybown2502]

If I may say I was glad I meet you a couple of days later and not in amongst all the throngs of people. And one thing that impressed me was that you actually asked me my name and of all the KZbinrs, you are one of only two, Simon Pavey being the other, that did that, so kudos to you mate, you’re a real person.

[@KiwiPokerPlayer]

I love the thought of that old mate who told you boys to F off being in that crowd cheering you on near the end. He might have even got a selfie with you at the start. He knows who is if he's watching this too hahaha.

[@andrewford80]

I love the idea of the very moment he realised to whom he said "fuck off" what a classic!

[@Kamanya]

I know you'd hate me for saying this as I know it wasn't the major intent of the videos, but this has to be top 3 marketing videos for a bike of all time, maybe ever! Outrageous videography. Bucket list ride that is not out of the realm of the bog-standard man. Storytelling and the mix of the natural storyteller brings it right into the personal and relatable. Being truly on your own with zero backup and frills on a bog standard bike. Then, as if that’s not enough casually hobknobbing with The Mr Sala! Amongst his many accomplishments was his role in developing the wild and rare KTM 950 SE which this Norden can trace its roots back to. This ride was in more ways than just the riding, the widest and truest showing of just what the Norden 901 was aiming at when they pitched this bike at the masses. This was gorgeously fabulous! Aspirational and utterly achievable. How I so wish I could've done this trip! If all Husqvarna did was give you the bike, this has to be the all-time best marketing buck for the bang ever. Bravo Adam and Husqvarna!

[@lukefish7562]

🏅 Well said. And if I didn’t already have a Norden Expedition I’d buy one now. Adam is the best at giving you it all. Incredible riding , storytelling and badass bikes! Cheers 🏍️💨

[@TheShedSesh]

@@Kamanya I’d be disappointed for Adam if a fully optioned Norden didn’t just arrive at his door step. They got a huge amount of exposure and it was all on point!!! Right down to the logs at the end!

[@max_archer]

Yeah, no joke. I have neither the budget nor the riding skill for one, but if I did I'd be headed to the local Husky dealer for one right now. Certainly doesn't hurt that it's such a great looking bike either, especially compared to the sea of modern ADVs that look like Gundam heads on wheels or alien insects.

[@ramanshekhar9514]

Well said! I want a norden now

[@SwampGeezer]

You came to a motorcycle festival as a VIP, hot off the trail with 10 minutes to spare, and then changed your own tires in front of everyone. I'm not sure I even understand who you are Adam. Certainly not the run-of-the-mill 'influencer'. Love your videos, your vibe, and what you represent. Long may you ride and inspire.

[@kevinh8338]

In the motorcycle world, he can be referred to as an ‘alien’ 👽

[@pathikdesai5853]

There was a moment when Adam and Chris were riding together and the cam was on Chris. I stopped eating for 5 mins that's how amused I was to see you guys ride!! LEGENDS!! 🙌🙌🙌

[@brianglendenning1632]

Public speaking is tough, but to be authentic when public speaking is really hard and you just have to be you. You nailed it.

[@kims2r]

Mr. Riemann is touching a lot of hearts staying down to earth and taking time to interact with his loyal audience, what a blessing!

[@niallmatthews6895]

Wow I didn't realise you actually just made it there and then to the show! great to see you at ABR Adam, you're an inspiration!

[@scottaubrey8392]

That track with some very nervous riders on I would assume! Compared to Australia the UK’s off road network is very small. Adventure bike riders rarely have the same opportunities as the Australian and Americans do with such wide open spaces. I moved from the UK to Australia in 2014 - it’s heaven here for those who love two wheels and dirt! Thanks for the ride Adam!!

[@Ride2Xplore]

Mad! Meeting with all the other legends there and ride together! Awesome!

[@samgibson6656]

You rock Adam what you do for adventure riding is second to none. Some of the views are breathtaking, hi five buddy we love you.

[@thepeakybiker]

😢. Adam was amazing finally meeting you and chatting after the talk and at the bar Your a good person with good intentions Hope you and your family my all the best in life You inspire people from riding a bike to carrying on with life Thepeakybiker I thank you 🙏🏻

[@MotologyFilms]

Good to meet you and hear the positives you've taken from my films over the years. Cheers mate.

[@martynedmiston9109]

I don’t see you as an influencer, I see you as a traveler, who can tell the story of the adventure. And can explain what my bike is telling me, what it should be doing and how to make me and it better. All while videoing the story and sharing an idea. Great set of vids, thanks a bunch.

[@enduromotorradtouren]

What a bizzare experience in that wheat field. "The solitude of solo travel is over" - what a phrase. I couldn't stand the crowds at such a festival. Thanks for your inspirational channel, Günter/Nürnberg

[@timharris258]

It happens a lot in france where farmers would just assume that tracks are no longer used and they just plant crop on top of it…

[@enduromotorradtouren]

@@timharris258 More square meters for the harvest, Tim ;-) Seriously, gotta find such places in France. After our misson on TET section 13 went wrong after 8 miles we have a bone to pick with France. Hope to start again soon. Günter/Nürnberg

[@nilsen39]

What stand out on this channel, is your excellent story telling talent, during the videos, giving that extra depth and quality to the films.

[@casey3057]

What a rad series. Love seeing you and Birchy show everyone how it’s done and to see you having a good time. I’ll admit it was a bit sad to see you have to give the Norden back… I’d have put a solid bet on you trying to keep the big girl. Thank for bringing us along sir.

[@MotologyFilms]

I loved riding it. Made every day of the trip fun ... even the long, monotonous sections.

[@rickhouston2144]

All the rock was giving me KTM Morocco vibes

[@Mark1JT]

I love watching your and Birchy's videos to remind me of what a piss poor rider I am.

[@ExeterCenturion]

Love this series of videos, but have to say that Daniel was the absolute highlight! What an amazing guy. Would love to see you two pair up again!

[@emiliano2286]

Thank you for offering the greatest content on youtube Adam, you really inspire us a lot. SPEECHLESS!

Hallo Adam Danke fürs mitnehmen 🙏

Great video Adam!!❤ Best motorcycle videos on the internet. He should have 5 million followers by now. Keep it up, great storytelling.

[@Toonces311]

Adam you are a legend. Keep it up

[@michaelbullivant8828]

This series has to be one of the best edited and shot film series anywhere, not just on KZbin. I love your positive attitude and outlook on life, I must get around to attending the ABR. I've ridden from the UK to Italy but on roads and I was amazed at some of the routes you found. Keep em coming 😁

[@channehemiah1501]

A new bucket list in life - riding 5000km across Europe

[@allanbedford5872]

5000klm of excellent work, and hrs of editing effort Adam well done

[@dimosk7389]

ok, that was spooky...i was watching this, and was thinking "after that, i better check Chris Birtch's channel for any new videos" (my 2 favorite moto channels)... 10 seconds later, there he is, riding with you, getting yelled at by some random guy LOL

[@ryanroux5429]

Brilliant conclusion to an eye opening dirt ride through Europe! Living in South Africa, I was led to believe that there was nothing worth pursuing on gravel in Europe, it’s clear that the TET routes are well established and that light weight ADV riding is an option 😎 The festival looks bloody brilliant too.. great community Thanks Adam. Appreciate your work. If you’re ever in South Africa, I got some proper off the beaten track trails to share.. Be well 👍

[@richardleong935]

you are the greatest motor adventure ever i've watch on youtube. you did some amazing scene for your trip and also it will be the best memories to you and your family. good luck god bless you always!!

What a ride through France and that was some festival and impressive of people’s behaviour, manners and respect for the organizers Well done to those guys Thanks for the Journey Adam as always Thanks Dave

A very entertaining and superbly produced series. Kudos

[@stuartferrier7560]

Just a note to let you know how much I appreciate your work in presenting various parts of the world to us in such spectacular videography and entertaining commentary. This latest adventure across Europe was sensational and brought places to my lounge room, that I know I will never me able to reach. In my eyes, Motology is top shelf! Well done Adam. 👌

The only guy to have an audience whilst changing the tyres on the Husky! I’m a new subscriber and have been binge watching a lot of the older content and I have to say it’s absolutely superb. In fact, I’ve recommended your channel to at least ten of my friends and some know your channel and others are new like myself and enjoy it just as much as I do! Will be awesome to see you come ride out in China!

With a busy city life with a lot of responsabilities and concerns you have the ability of making us feel free and travel in spirit with your videos and adventures... thanks mate.

[@mototrailz]

Adam next adventure for you👇 I did it many times… You fly to Portugal. We ride adv bikes (i can get you any brand) from Portugal to Morocco and back off-road with a pit stop at Merzouga to ride the big dunes on a 450 ktm. What do you say?

[@andrewford80]
